With her appointment, SBI now has total three MDs, including PK Gupta and DK Khara.
“The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet approved the appointment of Kant as the Managing Director (MD), SBI till the date of her superannuation i.e. September 30, 2020,” an order from the Personnel Ministry said. The Bank Boards Bureau had recommended her name for the post.
